Mining Rushts ef Aliens.
Mining Advocate

Attorney General Garland has
briefly answered certain questions
propounded to him by capitalists Of
London, concerning questions Of
making investments in American
mines. His opinion, If sustained BY
the courts. gives an Interpretation to
the law which reduces its severity and
leaves room for the legsl employment
Of much foreign capital in territorial
mines. The questions and answers
were ~ follows:
First-Was the act intended to ap-
ply and does IT apply to mines?
Second Can aliens lawfully ac-
quire, own and hold shares or stock
issued by an American corporation,
which is the owner of mineral lands
in the territories?
Third-Would the advancement OF
money by aliens for the purpose de-
veloping Of mining properties be law
full under the act?
Fourth aliens lawfully con-
tract with American owners for work
ing mines or making any proper use
Of mineral lands for term OF years?
The Attorney General, after show
| ing that lease of . mine is not ian
interest in real estate" in the legal
sense, answers the above questions as
follows:
First-As mines are real estate, OF
inheritable interests in real estate
the act does not apply to them.
Second-As stock in a corporation
is personal, an alien can lawfully have
own and hold shares of stock issued
by an American corporation which il
now the owner of mineral lands il
territories; but if the holding b.
aliens exceeds twenty per cent. sucl
corporation can neither acquire, hold
own, nor hereafter acquire real estat
while more than 20 per cent. of tn
stock is held and owned by aliens.
: Third-Under the act the advance
) ment of money by aliens for the pul
, pose of developing mining propert
is lawful, but no interest in the re.
9 estate can be acquired by such at
vancement, nor would the alien hav
D the right to purchase the real estat
e nor any interest therein, on los
g made since the passage of the ac
o even if sold on his own security lie
Fourth-Aliens may lawfully CO
u tract with American owners to wo
u mines by personal contracts, for hi
"a OF by bona fde leases for reaso
{, able time.

The eclipse of memory which has
suddenly fallen upon the once bright
mind of Chicago young lady awak-
ems, indeed, widespread sympathy for
the young beauty and her home circle,
but it compels US to perceive that the
different faculties occupy different
parts of the brain tissue, and thus a
calamity to beloved girl casts light
upon the physical bases of intellectu-
al action. This lady awoke from a
sleep and did not know her own Sis
ter or the other members of her fam
lily. Her mother fingered upon the
borders of some we'll known being,
but to her sister and brother and
father she awoke as to strangers.
Her language, her reasoning power,
her happiness remained, but the
world of persons had vanished, to be
succeeded by interesting people, but
persons who we're unknown. Thus
upon some part of the brain disease
had fallen, and the faculty which had
for 20 years occupied that apartment
was rudely evicted.
it may be there is some part OF the
brain which is the seat of conscious
ness, and that the little nerve which
leads from the memory of persons te
that citadel of consciousness has beer
injured, and that therefore no com
munication can be made from th'
suburb to the central CITY, Blindness
results from some paralysis of littl'
thread which runs from the eye t.
the brain, and while the eye itsel
may be perfect, and the consciousness
perfect in ability, yet owing to tn
injury to the intermediate nerve, tn
image on the retina cannot pass owe
to the consciousness. Seeing take
. nlace in the dark caverns of the braiI
but the image cannot travel in tn
; dark if the bridge be down between
for the abyss is bottomless. In IL
case of Miss l.. the injury may I
only to some nerve delicate as
sn;der's web. Nature may repair Il
injury, and the lost persons may {
return suddenly as they departe
Generally such injuries are lrrepar
BILE, but we are glad that they are n
!. always so.-[David Swing in Chloai

A BIG NUGGEr OF GoLD.-The talk
in mining circles yesterday was the
discovery of the big gold nugget near
Breckenridge. The nugget was found
at depth of many feet from the sur
face and weighs exactly 156 ounces
and 5 pennywelghts. There is little
lead and some quartz, but as speci-
men it could likely be sold for close
on to $4,000. 1t is said to be the
largest lump of gold ever found in
Colorado, but one almost if not quite
as large was taken from the Little
Annie mine in summit district, Rie
Grande county, late in 1876.
To Australia belongs the honor o
having produced the largest nugge
of gold ever discovered. 1t weighet
1876 pounds, and found at Ballarat
near Geelong.[-Denver Republican

Idaho Recorder.

Last year Fred. T. Dubois was
elected to Congress upon : local is
sue. We call it local because it Is
one peculiar in this section, and to
be q jack Mormon, Mormon or anti
Mormon forms no criterion elsewhere
OF the citixcns fealty to either party.
John HALEY, his opponent professed
to be equally opposed to Mormonism
and it, methods. The trouble 10 his
case was that he did not avow him
self untiis too late in the day. He
temporized for too long time and
when he finally did avow himself the
majority Of the people had become
committed to Dubois.
The Mormon issue may be regard
ed - pretty nearly ont Of the way, it
having become the subject of national
Legislation insomuch that whatever I
territory would be likely to do could
have but little practical effect. A
new issue, local in its character, is
looming mp. II is whether Idaho shall
be blotted from the map Of the ccun-
try and its fragments divided between
the surrounding States and Tefritor-
les or whether it shall remain as it is
until within few years it be admit
ted as State in the Union.
The money influence of the East il
in favor of consolidation. Trifine
little States like Rhode Island, Dele.
ware and Vermont are not satisfied
with an equal vote in the Senate with
such States as New York, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, but they must Offset
States with a territory as large a,
France, as in the case Texas, and de-
prive the west Of its just representa-
ton in the councils of the nation, while
they concoct schemes for our robbery
| in protective tariffs, demonstration
of silver, absorbing nearly all Of tn
cash in the national treasury, and us
ing their influence to defeat ever
western measure unless it be such a
is backed up in the east and conduce
to the financial benefit of capitalist
in that quarter of the country.
The next Congressional contest i
Idaho will be fought upon this issue
The position of Dubois thereon is nc
at all uncertain. Should his oppor
ent attempt to ride two horses at th
same time he will be defeated. Shoul
he wait until a late hour, as Halle
did, he will suffer defeat. The peop
are in no mood for tame cand
n date on this point and will demaI
one who will speak loud, quick al
prompt-de6ning his position witho
|, eauivocatlsm. The enemies of Ida
stole a march on US once-we sh
be very likely to see they do not do
9 again.
o Sometimes during this month pu
lie meetings should be called in all t
school districts of the country aud I
monstances circulatee against any
" vision of our Territory. Whatev
Lemhi county was a year ago-it
% now practically unit against disi
Il tegration. It is our duty to make o
T. sentiments known. Let our PeoT
stand to their guns and all will
n, well.-- Idaho Recorder.

special Correspondence

White horses have ever been a subject for
superstition. Death is represented as riding
"a white horse.
Tie horse is distinguished from most other
animals In having am undivided hoof, and in
mo singular property Of breathing through
the nostrls only and not through the mouth.
ia Ls wild state bis ears hang down, but
under the guardianship OF man they become
erect and pointed In this respect, too, the
horse differs from all other animals. With
them the erect ear is the sign Of the savage,
the falling ear the sign Of civilization So II
seems plain that the true physical beauty OF
Tie lorse, rs well as the production Of his full
,PoSd, are due " the watchful care OF his
sspAr pastss.
